practicing out of treestand
 

The man teaching at our bowhunters saftey course this year said to shoot at gallon milk jugs from a tree stand.He told us to throw them out in different directions and distances.I can see his point in that a milk jug is about the size of a deers vitals.My question is will I break my carbon arrows shooting them into the ground?Should I fill the jugs with something that will slow the arrows down?That's if I can hit them or not.What do you guys shoot at,when you are practicing?Thanks for any help.I just bought a dozen arrows and have already ruined 1.I'm anything but rich,these arrows cost about 7 each.

GUNS AND KNOWLEDGE ARE THE BEST PROTECTION AGAINST TERRORISM

3d targets. they're around 100.00 or so with the vitals outlined. would save money in the long run and more realistic.

go to your nearest KMART they have a 3d deer for about $45.00 this is the type that has the replacable vital section, or use a large box filled with every piece of foam or carpeting you can find then seal the box paint a spot and have at it, or go to the nearesyt sports shop see if they have any leftovers from last year..... good luck

As long as you don't hit a rock, the arrow will be OK. I shoot my aluminum arrows all the time from my tree stand before I hunt. I just pick a leaf 20 yards away and shoot it with a blunt.
